So this is the new community forum?? Hmmm its gonna take some getting used to :), I used to be a former member of the old forum, along with my sister hottsmokin, Sherry. Some of you may remember the story of our father, Paul Thompson who had a very tough battle with Pancreatic Cancer. Anyway, I am still getting used to the idea of him not being here, its been very hard losing the best friend I ever knew. Although, I still feel his spirit completely around me at times, its still hard not having him here in the physical world. Since my fathers death, My life went took a complete 360 degree turn. I finally managed to get out of a very verbally/mentally abusive marriage; I am so very proud of myself for having the strength to do it, especially so soon after the loss of my dad, but I think his spirit helped me gather the strength to do what was needed to get the negativity out of my life. I have pulled myself out of a financial hole that my ex left me in, I have a new job, new life and a whole new out look on my life. I am slowly finding joy and a smile will creep to my face every now and again, especially where my children are involved. They are the breath I breathe and they have helped me so very much! I am so very proud of the little people that they have become. They are the rocks in my life.
